I'm fine with with trusting everyone else to do the group decisions! I do love discussing mechanics, but lately I don't have enough focus for the finest details of these, so discussions like above are mostly lost on me. XD I do think Rpgventurer or Bedzone would be great decision makers! Of course, if they would volunteer. (And I am definitely not suited for this. :P)

As for the in-character leader... The same, actually - Brindel and Feliani! They are the ones taking the most initiative when it comes to the group at large and making things happen. XD

Doughty Brindel gets my vote for party leader! But Feliani is definitely a doer, heh.
May 21, 2020 2:35 pm
If I were to weigh in I would say of the party Brindel seems like the most natural leader of that group with Feliani running a close second if that helps any
May 22, 2020 10:18 pm
I volunteer Brindel as the caller then.

I second (or is it third or fourth?) Brindel as our group's spokesperson.

GeneCortess I have finished the Primeval Awareness benefits within the House Rules under Ranger -- I have also applied them to the current game situations
May 27, 2020 3:16 pm
Yeppers made that change on Primeval Awareness and corrected my Natural Explore. Checked my Gloom Stalkers while I was at it.
May 27, 2020 4:12 pm
So GeneCortess your thoughts on the new Primeval Awareness -- it was a bit tricky to get to add something to what you as a Ranger could already do without making too powerful (aka more powerful than a cantrip based on the other spells similar to it) -- aka see the 5th Level Druid Spell Commune with Nature as a gauge of what I mean

Oh and dang actually forget a small bit sorry I tweaked it again forgot to re-examine Commune with Nature which added a minor piece that does not currently affect you - it was late one I posted that (or early depending on how you view that ;-) )

I believe you have done well on it. I see no problem with it. I believe it is better than the original was.

Hi everyone, it's the inevitable thing that happens to even the most regular of players. I need to review the commitments to my games on GP. Lockdown is almost over, I go back to work next week, and am expecting a hell of a lot of extra work to make up for lost time. I am currently running 2 games, and am playing in another 10, and I'm afraid I will need to cut back. As this is one of my newest games, I've rationalised that it's fairer to let this one go first. (I've dropped one last week already).

My sincere apologies. As a frequenter on GP, I do realise how disruptive player loss is. I enjoyed the characterisation that my fellow players have brought to the game, and want to say special thanks to Dejoker for inviting me in the first place, with whom I've had some very fruitful gaming and DMing discussions.

Story-wise, I'm prepared to spin Feliani as changing her mind about going into the swamp, because of some secret message her familiar brought her, or something like that.

Once again, thank you all.

Best of luck, BedzoneII. It's been a pleasure.
May 29, 2020 5:46 am
Ah so sad -- sorry to see ya go -- if you want to wander back this way let me know
May 29, 2020 10:25 am
Will do, thanks again everyone!

GeneCortess please explain the +11 -- I have +1 from Dex / +4 Primeval Awareness / ??

Note I am not saying its not there just want to know where it is coming from

Also the (8) becomes a 4 as I asked for a 1d10 Initiative roll -- I do not like penalizing faster more aware folk by doing the 1d20 I figure if you are fast and/or very aware that should give you a solid advantage where quickness is a major factor.

INIT +10
Rolls INIT - (1d20+11) ( 8 ) + 11 = 19
May 30, 2020 5:14 pm
LOL the +10 on INIT was a fast misread. I corrected it with the proper 1d10 roll right afterwards. I have no idea what I was thinking with the first rolls! Gesh. And stop doing two things at once might help too!

Good luck!

Hey, just letting you all know, my Internet issue's fixed, so I'm back to more active posting! :)

Okay as a heads up -- because I do not know what you all see when I do this -- I have added and/or tweaked the following items under spells

Guidance
Prestidigitation
True Strike

Prestidigitation -- is the on-going effort to formalize but diversify these minor-minor cantrips

Guidance and True Strike -- these are tweaks caused by a deep dive into adjusting the Augury spell in order to make it more game friendly and thematically useful -- aka I am not omnipotent and I hate things built into a game that make me need to be so I would much rather have some kind of static quantitative benefit and leave it at that -- and trying to ascertain a scaling to these various Divination spells that made a bit more sense and followed the scaling factor that is present between spell levels

First thanks Gene for bringing this to my attention not once but twice ;) -- and my apologies for this delay -- getting things back on track slowly.

That said the last post is currently complete -- it takes a bit of work to pull all the elements together
